Texas Democrats split over Prohibition plank in governor race
In Texas Democratic primaries antiprohibitionists backed O. B. Colquitt for governor while Prohibitionists pushed a statewide ban. Rumor says Colquitt may refuse the platform, prompting an independent bid from a prohibitionist faction led by Saloon ally Foca of Saloon. Amid contest, William Poindexter and Cone Johnson headed a three-man field with strong anti trust credentials by Beaton.
